'Beneath You'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
The movie that Bird made before The Incredibles was The Iron Giant. Bird was fired by Warner Bros after he completed the film and before it was released, and it was released with hardly any promotion from the studio.
Bird's seething resentment at the suits at Warner is plastered on thickly in The Incredibles.

So what was his excuse for Ratatouille?
Maybe it's time to get Matlida hooked on Emporer's New Groove. It's never too early to introduce kids to the wonder that is Eartha Kitt, even in scary animated form.
Oh, she's already a big fan. Unfortunately, what she's picked up from that movie is how to be a sulky, petulant lama where she tells her mother "Just leave me alone!" in exactly the same voice as David Spade.

That's just smug superiority.

Llama faaaaaaace.

Hilarious, though I'm sure it's not for JZ most of the time. Her role model should have been Patrick Warburton.
Nope, she's all about the petulance. Well, that and the little mi-mi-mi-mi-mi llama cryface.
Mister Spade, you and I have a score to settle. You broke my baby.
Bad llama.
What, what? Somebody's, somebody's throwing stuff. You gonna build a fire or what?

I wish she'd be more Krunk-like and cook me some spinach puffs.
Or even emulate Pacha (Goodman) and his wife and kids.
I guess it could be worse. She could be taking after Yzma. But JZ does not contribute even an iota of Diva to the genetic mix, and my Evil Genius is fair to middling at best.
There is one Buffista child, though, who has exactly the right parentage to grow up to be Yzma.
